If you have been driving in any winter mud and slush. Check the tone rings and sensors for crud stuck to them,

You also may have a bad ABS sensor, which has happened to me. The best way to check this is to use a scanner.
You cant do it with a cheap scanner, it has to be one of the high end ones.

You can also check the sensor with a VOM.
IIRC, the ohms should be from 17 to 26 ohms.
Check it disconnected.

in the end to find out the thye computer was reading a resistance from the the light bulbs which would turn the abs light on
